Q.  Can a stone driveway be installed/created over my existing asphalt driveway?	A.  YES!  It does not require your existing driveway material to be excavated.  That saves you money.
Q.  What exactly is a "stone driveway?"  How is it better than others?	A.  Our business is called "Fairfield County Oil and Stone" because they are the primary ingredients in this unique application process, also known as "chip sealing."  It is the process of taking an oil solution (i.e., liquid asphalt) and special stone and applying it to existing pavement, or a prepared raw surface area (e.g., new construction established lawn/dirt area specified for the driveway).  This process results in a resilient, great-looking way to strengthen your driveway without sacrificing a consistent look to your home's entrance (i.e., that would occur with standard paving or blacktop applications).
Q.  What about color?  We have a red clay ground color - is there any way to match it?	A.  YES, you may choose a close color to match.  The cover stone used comes in a variety of colors and may be chosen to best match the consistent look of your driveway environment.
Q.  What about care and maintenance?	A.  Rustic Driveways made of Oil and Stone are extremely durable and resistant to wear and tear.  No special maintenance is required and, during the winter, snow plowing will not hurt the driveway material.
Q.  How long is the process, and what's involved?	A.  Typically, the process is completed in the same day as the start of work.  After that, it takes 2-3 days to cure the adhesion of oil and stone.
